Chapter 226: And He Breathed No More
Phoenix was frozen in shock, then she started wiping at the blood that was flowing out of the man’s lips in a fluster. Her voice trembled as she cried, “Lin Wen, Lin Wen! Why are you so stupid?”
“It’s good that you’re alright, that’s all that matters.” As he spoke, more blood gushed out of his mouth.
Phoenix turned around and glared at Ning Shu with hatred. “Daisy, I’ll have you die. You actually dared to hurt him? I’ll kill you!”
Ning Shu: …
For some reason, she suddenly felt like the main villain. This man who braved death to save the female lead was probably the supporting male lead-sama.
Hence, every time the male or female lead faced danger, there would always be someone to save them and be injured so that the leads could proceed to fend off evil in the name of justice.
Ah pei! She wasn’t an ‘evil’ at all! There was no evil or justice, only different standpoints. After all, could it be that she should have stood still and allowed the female lead to dig the crystal nucleus out of her brain?
>It’s been a while~ ‘pei’ is the Chinese onomatopoeia for spitting.
An enormous force exploded out of Phoenix’s body. Ning Shu narrowed her eyes when this happened, because she sensed that there was actually the energy of zombies mixed in.
Could it be that ability users use the crystal nucleus of zombies to strengthen their abilities?
The force this energy gave off told her that this wasn’t something to be taken lightly, so Ning Shu cautiously retreated and floated back up into the air to look down at Phoenix from above. Phoenix’s face was filled with grief as she glared at Ning Shu with bone deep hatred.
Ning Shu felt speechless. In this sort of situation, shouldn’t she be giving that poor supporting male lead first aid? Even if Phoenix managed to kill her quickly, it probably would be too late by then to save the supporting male lead.
Ning Shu felt like she was worrying way more than the actual people involved.
Phoenix created an enormous and sharp piece of condensed ice, then sent it shooting towards her. Ning Shu quickly dodged.
“Daisy! If you have the guts, stop dodging and duel with me!” shouted Phoenix in indignance and grief.
Why the heck would she not dodge? To become a target? Ning Shu scoffed.
“Ah…” A scream of agony rung out. Ning Shu looked over, then went 囧. The supporting lead-sama that Phoenix had thrown down was truly done for now.
Phoenix turned around and saw that a variant zombie had dug out Lin Wen’s heart.
Her eyes turned scarlet red and she started shooting icicles at the variant zombie like crazy, but the variant zombie easily dodged them and returned to floating in midair while holding the heart with an indifferent expression.
“Lin Wen, Lin Wen…” Phoenix, who had always been cold and aloof, hugged the man’s corpse as she wailed loudly.
“Phoenix, please be happy.” Then the man’s head dropped to the side and he breathed no more.
